At this point, I think my significant flaws probably outweigh my positive genetic contributions.

Nothing wrong with needing alone/quiet time to recharge. Nothing wrong with not wanting kids. There are over 7 billion people in the world. A few of us not reproducing are unlikely to be the end of civilization.
If you're somewhat intelligent and you choose not to have kids, you're making the world worse, because there are millions (billions?) of stupid people who pump out their genetically inferior offspring by the litter. Why are you making the world worse JC?

I kind of hate to call myself an introvert because it seems like the current internet fad to do. Kind of like all the kids say they were bipolar or ADD a few years ago. However I gotta think I'm pretty introverted. I don't like crowds, I like quiet, I generally keep to myself.
